Labour Party Conference drama as speaker COLLAPSES on stage

Hazel Malcolm-Walker, representing Bournemouth West at the conference, was part of a debate at the conference this morning.

The Labour delegate was discussing the closure of Poole Accident and Emergency ward and its impact on her constituency.

BBC television cameras were recording the debate when the drama took place.

UNWELL: Hazel Malcolm-Walker took a turn for the worse at the Labour Party Conference

Video shows her saying: “We're not asking for much, we're asking for five minutes of conference's time so that you can show our support for newly target seats in Bournemouth East and Bournemouth West.”

But as the crowd warmly cheer she begins to say: “Now I’m not feeling to well.”

And before she can finish the sentence she says “Oh God” and then collapses in front of the audience.

PANIC: The Labour Party Conference hall was left stunned by the incident

The clip shows her tumble to the floor and lie prone as gasps can be heard in the conference hall.

Paramedics were called to the stage to treat to Ms Malcolm-Walker, who was eventually placed in a wheelchair and taken from the venue.

As she was wheeled out of the hall, she waved to the audience and high-fived a colleague.
